Coalport Brick & Tile Works Siding
From SVR Wiki
The Coalport Brick & Tile Works was situated south of Coalport Station. The works and its siding can be seen on the lower right in the extract from the Ordnance Survey map published in 1903. Coalport station is towards the upper left.
The Works began tile production in 1894, after a clay mine was sunk three years earlier. In 1906 a branch of the siding was added to the west of the Works (shown as a disconnected line on the 1903 map).
During both World Wars, the Works was requisitioned for munitions purposes. Coalport Refractories continued to use the private siding until 1956[1].
